Dear Confashion: How do I wear High-Waisted Jeans?


Yara: How do I wear High-Waisted Jeans?


A: This season everyone want to Channel their inner Modern Katherine Hepburn with the high-waisted trend. It’s all about proportions daaahling. it's actually very flattering to wear wide high-waisted pants to make the most of an hourglass figure. Just make sure to tuck a fitted t-shirt and a vest or a fitted romantic top (with frills if you like) to balance the look. If you feel it’s too cold outside, then complete the look with a cropped swing jacket or a capelet and high heeled patent platforms.

If you want to try the skinny high-waist look, then expect a lot of green envy from your peers and mall on-lookers as it’s tough to pull off this style and you need the have right curves honey (but not too much of them). Pair the skinny high-waisted jeans or pants with a loose tucked top and flats. Wear suspenders if you want to look daring.

How would you wear your high-waisted pants/skirts?

I think wearing a High-waist pants/jeans give the illusion of a flat tummy. But you can hide your tummy with a wide belt if the style of the pants allow to. Choose one that is made out of soft leather. Oh! and don't forget to wear Mid-hip Corset. Not only hides your tummy buy it also helps to camouflage VPLs.

Dear Confashions :

I am a 30 something male gym instructor working in one of the

I want to ask you this - How do I wear low waisted jeans?

If the pants are wide, I think they'd help hip-py ladies hide their least fave areas..

Sorry, I'm not an expert in male fashion.

Agreed that this pic actually caused quite a hysteria in terms of "not a good style" for mischa. I agree that they should be worn if you have a flat tummy as they can elongate your figure..
but isnt it all about baggy/relaxed jeans now?
alexander wang, etc?

she isnt wearing them right. high waisted jeans with a cute plain shirt, or a cute ruffled shirt tucked in, with high pumps, cute simple round toe flats, or nice boots, is the way to wear them. That t-shirt just makes the whole outfit look messy. make sure the shirt is fitted, that way it shows your shape good...(esp if your wearing wide leg)
I have worn my skinny jean high waisted pants with a plain white fitted, tee, with a mid uper arm fitted sleeve. I paired that with a high black pump and black leg warmers the other day, and it came out adorable.
you have to just wear them right, other wise you would look like that micha picture.

Saks In Bahrain

I went to Saks Fifth Avenue store in Bahrain. The two-level store is located in City Centre Mall and has a collection of American and international clothes designers for Men and Women as well as jewelry, accessories, handbags, fragrances, cosmetics, intimate apparel, bridal, and children's apparel. However, I was slightly disappointed by the small selection, maybe because all items were on sale? Or the number and variety of brands were limited? Anyhow, my favourite section at Saks - Bahrain was Saks's world-famous 10022-SHOE salon (shown in the photo below). It had the same look & feel of the NY's shoe salon but of course not the same space. The Shoe Salon had really nice selection and they were all on sale! I have been told by Saks Sales Assistant that they will be hosting numerous special events throughout the year such as fashion shows and personal appearances by designers. Now that's something I'd be interested in! In addition, they currently offer in-st
